Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: Utah State Linebacker Bobby Wagner
Posted on 17. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
As the draft gets closer and closer, my gut tells me more and more the Eagles won’t take a linebacker in the first round. Realistically, the only real possibility I see would be Luke Kuechly, and I just don’t see it happening. I can definitely see a linebacker being on the radar on the second [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: Nebraska Linebacker Lavonte David
Posted on 13. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
The Eagles made a huge upgrade to the middle linebacker position when they traded for DeMeco Ryans. However, they can still use some help on the outside and will more than likely look to the draft to do so. A solid option to do this would be Nebraska linebacker Lavonte David. At 6-1 and 233 [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: Marshall Defensive End Vinny Curry
Posted on 11. Apr, 2012 by Alec Beckman.
The Philadelphia Eagles have consistently shown a desire for terrific line play, drafting six linemen with their past seven first round picks. Out of those six linemen, four of them have been on the defensive side of the ball. The Eagles clearly value the success that comes along with great lines, but how do you [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: California Linebacker Mychal Kendricks
Posted on 10. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
After adding DeMeco Ryans, the likelihood of the Eagles looking for a linebacker in the first round has diminished. The option can’t be completely ruled out, but bringing in Ryans and Andy Reid’s track record tend to make you think that way. With two picks in the second round, this may be a more likely [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: Alabama Safety Mark Barron
Posted on 09. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
Nobody wanted to see Brian Dawkins go. He was and always will be a Philadelphia legend. The departure of Dawkins became even worse as the Eagles have continued to struggle in replacing him. When Quintin Mikell left, things seemed to get even worse. The Eagles have attempted to make efforts to bring in talent at [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: North Carolina Defensive End Quinton Coples
Posted on 08. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
Two years ago, the Eagles drafted Brandon Graham and hoped he could be a forceful pass rusher opposite Trent Cole. Graham is yet to live up to expectations, so the Eagles may try to find a young stud again this year. One option they may explore is North Carolina defensive end Quinton Coples. At 6-6 [...]

Notre Dame wide receiver Michael Floyd had a very productive career in college. He is drawing a lot of interest from teams in the top half of the first round, and the Eagles decided to check him out for themselves last week. At 6-3, 220 pounds, one of Floyd’s biggest assets is his size. He [...]

Posted on 02. Apr, 2012 by Mike Burke.
With the addition of DeMeco Ryans, the Eagles may likely hold off drafting a linebacker in the first round. If they do, one option that may be available to them is North Carolina linebacker Zach Brown. Brown stands at 6-1, 244 pounds and has outstanding speed. At the NFL Combine this year, Brown recorded a [...]

Eagles 2012 Draft Prospect: Boston College Linebacker Luke Kuechly
Posted on 31. Mar, 2012 by Mike Burke.
When the 2011 season concluded and the 2012 mock drafts started popping up, Boston College linebacker Luke Kuechly and the Philadelphia Eagles were a very common match. With the Eagles acquiring DeMeco Ryans, Kuechly is less frequently matched with the Eagles. However, I think he is still very much on their radar and is a [...]
